<quoted text>The thing is, you can give the federal government any amount you wish for taxes. If you are paying 20% and want to give them 40%, they will have no problem taking it. There is also a fund setup for citizens to donate money towards our national debt.Liberals are nothing more than a bunch of hypocrites. Buffett is still paying less taxes than his secretary, Obama is paying less in taxes than his secretaries, and Al Gore consumes more fuel for his giant houses than most people combined on your average American side street. If Republicans lose the house leadership and Piglosi gets to be Speaker again, she will one again take her government funded private aircraft back and forth to Cali.

I understand the tax issue quite well. I also understand to not volunteer anything to the gov because it will be wasted, pilfered, in a way, flat out stolen & it still won't be enough. I also understand the liberal dbl/standards. They jump all over a repub veep that put an 'E' on potato but it's acceptable for Obama to state that there are 57 states & Michelle to say that she's a single mom. We don't even need to do more than mention Bidens name when it comes to verbal gaffs. There's no mention of all of the promises that Obama has broken starting with transparency & cutting the deficit in 1/2 in his 1st term ! Instead they make mostly lame excuses.

<quoted text>Sorry, but unfortunately for you and Dpants, there is this thing called reality, and it has nothing to do with the tea bagger emailed newsletters you live by. I worked for a company tht moved to the Dom Republic. It had nothing to do with unions or global warming. It was because the company got sued for ripping off another company. Nothing to do with every single employee who lost their job there. It was all about the dumb decisions the "job creators" made on a daily basis and that's the only reason they moved to a place where non-union workers gleefully work for $3 an hour. You know, like the America you bossman suck @sses dream about. Also, if you guys are too stupid to realize our weather is changing, despite the two cold months we had in ...gasp...winter time, then you deserve to be laughed at like clowns by the majority...say it with me...MAJORITY of voting Americans.Now about Dpants and his hatred for the UN. Seems that is based on Christians believing that a global effort by the UN is "the work of the antichrist". Ooooh how rational. Only a couple of thousand of years behind the rest of the country. Go throw rocks at the moon and think you'll hit it, you treasonous corporate fetch boys. You idiots don't have the slightest clue why you don't believe in climate change or hate the UN.

The earth has been in a thawing stage for several thousand years. The earth was once covered by ice when man was not even here, except neanderthals and dinosaurs.

<quoted text>I was just going to respond to him with exactly what you said. Many of them include their names on the bottom of their e-mails. I can't say they are all black, but I doh't know many white guys with a name like Lashon Williams III. LOL!

and the "reality" of your job moving over seas is what? 9bama signed two trade deals like nafta that allow stake holders (corporattions) meet in secret without congress ( our elected officials) participating. Kinda like when he decides to attack more middle eastren countries with the un and congress doesn't have a say. But you're right about global warming and the un. I have ruined the planet with my 4 cylinder and should be made a slave because of that.lol! Sorry you lost your job, I lost mine last week but I already landed another.

<quoted text>This is telling you how you did your part by supporting something that has not and will never be proven--man made global warming.

What is your training, that you speak with such authority? Are you a scientist? I am not a climate scientist, so I listen to those that are. Here's just a few of the scientific organizations that believe it to be real:

----------

American Meteorological Society: Climate Change: An Information Statement of the American Meteorological Society

"It is clear from extensive scientific evidence that the dominant cause of the rapid change in climate of the past half century is human-induced increases in the amount of atmospheric greenhouse gases." (August 2012)

American Physical Society: Statement on Climate Change

"The evidence is incontrovertible: Global warming is occurring. If no mitigating actions are taken, significant disruptions in the Earths physical and ecological systems, social systems, security and human health are likely to occur. We must reduce emissions of greenhouse gases beginning now." (November 2007)

American Geophysical Union: Human Impacts on Climate

"The Earth's climate is now clearly out of balance and is warming. Many components of the climate systemincluding the temperatures of the atmosphere, land and ocean, the extent of sea ice and mountain glaciers, the sea level, the distribution of precipitation, and the length of seasonsare now changing at rates and in patterns that are not natural and are best explained by the increased atmospheric abundances of greenhouse gases and aerosols generated by human activity during the 20th century." (Adopted December 2003, Revised and Reaffirmed December 2007)

American Association for the Advancement of Science: AAAS Board Statement on Climate Change

"The scientific evidence is clear: global climate change caused by human activities is occurring now, and it is a growing threat to society." (December 2006)

Geological Society of America: Global Climate Change

"The Geological Society of America (GSA) supports the scientific conclusions that Earths climate is changing; the climate changes are due in part to human activities; and the probable consequences of the climate changes will be significant and blind to geopolitical boundaries." (October 2006)

American Chemical Society: Statement on Global Climate Change

"There is now general agreement among scientific experts that the recent warming trend is real (and particularly strong within the past 20 years), that most of the observed warming is likely due to increased atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations, and that climate change could have serious adverse effects by the end of this century." (July 2004)

Scientific findings are constantly changing. Your links are too old to be of any value.

Also, by your guy's "logic", since having below normal temps proves to you that global warming doesn't exist, then today's 10 degrees above average temps must prove it does...right?

Strange how after thousands of years, the earth suddenly decided to spike in CO2, unlike anything ever known before, exactly at the time of the industrial revolution, and has continued since. Also...using your guy's "logic" again...I guess things like extreme increases in lung disease such as asthma, which is going on right now, are due to "natural causes". Soon enough you oil lobby propaganda idiots won't be able to deny it, and just like with people who admit to voting for GW Bush (Oil billionaire sponsored Tea Party), you will all magically disappear and no one will be able to find anyone who ever claimed they knew better than the expert scientists.

<quoted text>Scientific findings are constantly changing. Your links are too old to be of any value.

And you know better than all of them...because some militia website told you. So let's recap. Genius scientists and experts on global weather trends...the same one's who predicted our planet is getting warmer...followed by the hottest decade in recorded history, have it all wrong. Fat middle aged UN hating white man, dressed in camo, rolling around in the leaves at the End Times Compound for Jesus? Your go to guy when it comes to global weather trends.

Also, since most of the Tea Baggers love Jesus...Water walking Jewish zombie? Believe with all your heart. Scientists claiming that our climate is changing? Hogwash!!!

<quoted text>Scientific findings are constantly changing. Your links are too old to be of any value.

That Copernicus guy's views are really old also. Yet the earth still revolves around the sun. Funny. He was called a kook and was thrown in prison by the church for his scientific findings. That just proves that there has always been a group of nutballs who think they know better than science. Luckily, our country is leaving relics like that in the past. So when you morons start talking about "the end is near", in your case, you nailed it.

<quoted text> and the "reality" of your job moving over seas is what? 9bama signed two trade deals like nafta that allow stake holders (corporattions) meet in secret without congress ( our elected officials) participating. Kinda like when he decides to attack more middle eastren countries with the un and congress doesn't have a say.But you're right about global warming and the un. I have ruined the planet with my 4 cylinder and should be made a slave because of that.lol!Sorry you lost your job, I lost mine last week but I already landed another.

You mean attacking middle eastern countries like when Obama took out the number one terrorist in the world or do you mean like when GW and the Christian right gleefully sent our American soldiers off to die in a meaningless war, and lied to Congress about WMDs so Cheney's Halliburton could make billions in no bid contracts?

Funny how "scientific" you guys suddenly become when trying to disprove global warming. Now let's hear you explain why you fight so hard for the exact same message the energy industry spent millions of dollars on in propaganda against global warming. Here's a hint, people in church were making bold statements on global weather patterns a decade before Gore said a word about it. I'm sure it's just a coincidence that it was going on at the exact same time the oil billionaire Koch brothers who directly fund the Tea Party were spending millions to get people to not believe in climate change. Funny how you guys are still buying it, even after the oil billionaires did a complete turn around and now claim that global warming exists and it is most certainly caused by man. Just shows how clueless you guys really are.

Although there were claims of "global cooling" in the 1970s, there was never a scientific consensus that it was happening. In fact, it was a minority viewpoint, even then.

"In the 1970s, there was increasing awareness that estimates of global temperatures showed cooling since 1945. Of those scientific papers considering climate trends over the 21st century, only 10% inclined towards future cooling, while most papers predicted future warming."

"In response to such reports, the World Meteorological Organization issued a warning in June 1976 that a very significant warming of global climate was probable."
